Flipron feat. Neville Staple / The Comet Returns
Live & Direct! This is the promo for the new Flipron single featuring the legend that is Neville Staple. A twangy guitar off beat spaghetti-ska number with a comet theme that is available for download on 10th September. Neville, you are a gentleman! From the forthcoming album on Tiny Dog records 'Firework Shoes', produced by Rat Scabies & mixed by David M. Allen.
Made by Paul Collins at Goanna Films with Josh Randall & assistance from Adam & CJ. Huge thanks also to the people at 2-tone Central in Coventry for giving us complete freedom to do what we like in & around the venue where we shot the performances. Specials scholars will know who the legendary gentleman is blowing smoke into the camera at 2.59. A free promo CD of the tune for the first person to identify him!
Guitarists & gearheads who are interested, on both the audio & video that's a Peerless Gigmaster SC with handmade Creamery Sonic Six pickups fitted for pure clean twangy tone, going through a rare Dickinson 45w head & a custom cab.
